For best results and longevity of your pans, we recommend hand washing using mild detergent. If machine washing is used, avoid using harsh chemicals and detergents as they will remove the seasoning, and possibly harm the pan and/or coating.

Many Nordic Ware pans will perform on an induction stove top. Induction stoves require a pan with magnetic properties, so pans made from steel or iron are sufficient. You can test your pan by holding a magnet to the bottom to see if it sticks; if so, it will work on your induction stove top.

Our coatings are formulated to our specifications and produced in the USA by coatings companies that also supply the medical, military, foodservice and aerospace industries. The coatings we use on our cookware and bakeware are all FDA-complaint and conform to their 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 175.300. The coatings are safe for food contact.
